1500s - help with a some words
« on: Thursday 07 August 25 07:50 BST (UK) »

"for divse(?) good causes and considerations ___  ___ by his ___indented bering(?) date(?) the ___ day of July in the ___ yer of the reign of o(?) sovern lord the king ___ that ___ ___ dyd ___ & lette unto John ..."

Thank you
